Networks, by their very nature, are open. They exist to facilitate the exchange of information. Yet, as information is passed from user to email to web to file server, its very use and format change. To date, software solutions built to protect the network are unable to adapt to these changes. They were created at a particular moment in time to solve a very particular problem. It is for this very reason that solutions are passive. It is also why information becomes vulnerable. Threats to information rely upon packaged security solutions that have remained stagnant long enough to be sidestepped.

Strategies, unlike solutions, employ intuition and intelligence to anticipate changing circumstances. An Intuitive Information Security strategy (see Products & Services) uses adaptive technology to deliver these resources to the entire network. It is the immediate application of TrendLabs' knowledge, received by the Network Administrator and deployed by Trend Micro's innovative technology, Control Manager, across the enterprise to any number of go-red products. It allows information to be secured at every point of contact, not only during a threat or after one has been detected, but many times before one even exists. Like information, Intuitive Information Security strategies can change every moment of every day. In real time. And solutions, alone, cannot do that.
